After exploring Sweet Auburn District, we took the new 'Atlanta Streetcar' to the Centennial Olympic Park and walked across the road to the CNN World Headquarters where we ate lunch in the huge foodcourt. It is possible to go on a CNN studio tour, but we're saving that for a rainy day with the girls! The final stop was visiting the Center for Civil and Human Rights, which only opened in 2014. This museum connects the civil rights movement of fifty years ago with human rights issues and struggles throughout the world today and was a fascinating and moving experience. This definitely wasn't a museum for young children. After that, it was home in an UBER, in time to collect the girls from the school bus.
